- Title
Redeeming Chenu? A Reconsideration of the Neoplatonic Influence on Aquinas's Summa Theologiae.
- Abstract
The article examines that D. Chenu published essay in which he advanced the thesis that the ordo disciplinae of Thomas's Summa Theologiae was modeled upon the exitus-reditus of Neoplatonic emanation. Topics include reports that thesis was not without significant controversy, and seemed to widen the chasm between those who believed that more attention had to be paid to this Neoplatonic dimension in Thomas and those for whom Thomas's Aristotelianism trumped any significant Neoplatonic pedigree.
